How come I have to pay $116 out of pocket for my dental exam and cleaning? Is this covered by your firm’s dental coverage plan?

What! That is a preventive service and should be covered 100% 2x a year. Was your dentist in-network?

@OP- there you go! I learned this lesson long time back dealing with parents’ insurance. I am sure you will use it as lessons learned for future now. Always make sure with all medical facilities that they are in-network before making appointment (not limited to dentist only)- including lab work.

Also, you can use your FSA/HSA to pay for this

Turns out “212 Dental" in New York is out of network so I’d have to pay out of pocket. I pay $6 every pay check for dental. I deserve to get my teeth cleaned for free every six months. Now, I just need to find out who is in network in the NYM area.

And yet all of these folks who decry single payer or Medicare for All because they will lose their choice of PCP. Come on y’all, you’re just letting insurance companies tell you who you can and cannot see for medical care instead of the government of your peers...

I went to 212 dental as well 2 days ago and told me to pay the same amount, 116$. But when they called me first they told me 160$ then they decreased to 116..i will do the laser session friday and will not go back anymore there

So the facility is not in-network?? They have been calling me for so long at the end I found time to go there. I did a repayment plan for 5 months paying 23.20 with my HSA card

P1- that appears to be the case. Not in-network, hence the bill. You get free cleanings and xrays twice a year with an in-network provider

Dentist are crooks

This is the reason I don't do the dental care. My dentist cost 100 for checkup and cleaning. I do every other year dental insurance

Also - if your agency is remote or LA based and hiring, feel free to let me know in the comments as well :)

RE has slowed down IMO.

Have heard of multiple layoffs, but not mass layoffs yet, and I don’t think we’re going to mass layoffs since this is clearly a temporary pandemic related issue.

Would love to hear from others on what they’re seeing in RE. Please share your geographic market/firm size/relevant info.
